TAYLOR, Esq. `No. 9, New Bridge-stret, London. HoNOURDE SIR, 11 . BEG leave to inform you, that ever since the IL year 1790, I had been afflicted with the Lues Venereal, which, from its obstinately resisting every course of medicine prescribed by the most eminent of the faculty here, and un dergoing severalsevere courses of salivation, and twice dis , charged ,from the Hospital with I ittle.relief, would appear to be of tke most inveterate nature. In tic spring of last year my disorder had got to such . a head, ;is nearly to put a period to my existence—l had a large ulcer on the ertiwn of my head, one on each arm, and my legs ..were broke out in a frightful manners my right was dreadfully painful, and had been in a state of ulceration for the last seven years ; ray left had also two large nodes on it, was very ranch discoloured, and gave me such excruciating pain,. particularly when warm in bed, as nearly to deprive me of rest ; ita this lamentable state, I was recommended by Mr. J. Thompsiin, (who received so great a care by them here), to take VOlll Leake's Patent Pills, which I began to do on the. 214.1) o. May ; in the course of a fortnight I began to receive benefit -in little more than a month the ulcers on my bez.fdand asms were soundly healed— SOOll after, the.sores on my legs healed also ; leaving, how ever, considerable discolimration in the skin, and pain in the hone of the left, which, lay the blessing of God, and a little longer perseverance in your iovaluable Medicine, subsided ; the nodes dispersing, the skin regaio:..g its natural hue, and the nocturnal pains gradually going thus becaale, by your, liberal advice and medicine, .perfectly free front all my former complaints—have recovered my former spirits a nd strength, and ant become jolly awl fat, in which state having continued many months, to the astoniskaient of all who kneW ate, I am at a loss itt what tevais to express my gratitude, but beg you, for the food of other suffering mortals, to make this my case as public as possible, as I shall on every occa sion ; in so doing you will greatly oblige, Sir, your grateful, obedient, very humble servant, ALEX.

" R,—The readiness with which the public came forward in this City, last winter, in sup port of the proposed INVW Free Church, induces me to think that they will receive with satisfac. tkm the information that the purchase oft ground for that purpose is now in 'a course of comple tion. The difficulties. have been very great ; anti as it was 'not thought proper that the public mo ney should be risqued on an insecure purchase, the title has been under the consideration of an emi nent Conceyanc'er in London, anti did not arrive until this morning, with his• ft:morale opinion. We may now, therefore, confidently hope, that ail persons who have' the intetests of religion at heart, will lay aside that hesitation which has been ascribed to their doubts, whether the Chord' ‘tvotild really be erected, and Where. it would be. Tlke situation is - towards 'the East-end of the North-side of James-street, nearly opposite to the North-end of Kingsmead Terrace; a spot in the immediate neighbourhood - of Avon-street, anti .those adjoining to it on the one side, on whose inliabitaots it .is .hoped that •the Church willeroduce most salutary effects, and communi cating on the other side by a clear and good ap proach with Green Park Buildings, and the other streets in that neighbourhood, to Norfolk Cret -cent, for the accommodation of the affinent.— The : .Committ ec will, no . doubt, immediately she.q its earnestness by commencing the good work as soon as possession shall have'been given ; and tlita liberal aid of the inhabitants of our city will, as we may confidently hope, soon give general en couragement-10 the undertaking. The work is great ! hut its importance is infinite. Bounti fully, therefore, as it has been supported, by many individitals, we may hope that it now will be carried_to its completion by more general con* tribittions worthy of the generosity, the charity, and the piety, of this ancient and highly favour ed city. By giving insertion to the above, yoti will much oblige, " Sir, " Your obedient humble Servant, " Walcot, Dec. 24, 1818. _ C: A. MOYSET.' P It U S S 1 A. M.
